This series basically adds polling support to the driver, which is
needed due to HW limitations.

The proposed logic in the driver is to use polling if
platform_get_irq_byname() fails (due to whatever reason) use polling
with a hard-coded interval.

In the kernel I've found the following properties that describe the
polling interval:

bindings/input/input.yaml:

|   poll-interval:
|     description: Poll interval time in milliseconds.
|     $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32


bindings/thermal/thermal-zones.yaml:

|       polling-delay:
|         $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32
|         description:
|           The maximum number of milliseconds to wait between polls when
|           checking this thermal zone. Setting this to 0 disables the polling
|           timers setup by the thermal framework and assumes that the thermal
|           sensors in this zone support interrupts.

bindings/regulator/dlg,da9121.yaml

|   dlg,irq-polling-delay-passive-ms:
|     minimum: 1000
|     maximum: 10000
|     description: |
|       Specify the polling period, measured in milliseconds, between interrupt status
|       update checks. Range 1000-10000 ms.

From my point of view the poll-interval from the input subsystem looks
good. Any objections to use it to specify the polling interval for
IRQ-less devices, too?
